I have spent a few days with one like yours (2014 528i xDrive.) Initially I disliked it for some reason, probably because it is so drastically different from my 550i M Sport with manual transmission. However, the more I drove it, the more I liked it.
It was truly a terrific car. I especially liked the auto hold feature and start/stop. I found it to be extremely relaxing to sit at a long light or in traffic without holding the brake pedal and with the engine off. The steering and throttle response were good in sport mode and the automatic transmission shifted much better in sport mode, too. The 2.0T did not feel as monstrously powerful in the 5-series as it did in the 3er, but it was much better insulated and felt very quiet and smooth. The car I had did not have active roll stabilization, which is what I missed the most compared to my 550i.
